Telegram Trading Bot

This provides a template for Telegram trading bot on Base Mainnet that uses the Coinbase Developer Platform (CDP) SDK and MPC Wallet APIs.

It stores wallet data in a local database using PouchDB, and is meant to be run locally.

NOTE: This sample app is for demonstration purposes only. Make sure to persist your private keys, and deposit only small amounts of ETH to reduce the risk of losing your funds.

Secure your wallet using best practices. In production, you should use the 2-of-2 CDP Server-Signer with IP whitelisting for your API key for increased security.

Feature requests

You can also contact us via the CDP SDK Discord Channel.
